Ex-RIBS member Blake Fusilier set to release debut EP in 2016

Ex-RIBS member Blake Fusilier may have left Boston, but we at The Deli haven’t forgotten about him.

Blake’s debut EP is due out in 2016 under the name “Fusilier” on NYC’s Brassland label. A mix of jazz, dance and R&B, the EP highlights Blake’s immense vocal talents and melodic abilities.

A sample of what’s to come can be found via Blake’s Instagram feed below. We’ll be sure to share the rest of the tunes when they’re available, but for now check out the Fusilier website  and Facebook page for updates about the singer, including the EP release and tour dates.

I have this theory that if people knew who we really were in their minds, we probably would all have a lot more respect for one another. This applies to everyone: friends and acquaintances and bandmates. I think it’s our duty to ourselves to make sure that those around us have a chance to allow others to see our glorious, true selves. I finally feel like I’m beginning to live by those words. The songs I’m wrapping up have been floating around for years. I had been anticipating the moment when people could actually hear even 20 seconds of my potential. That said, I’m ecstatic to share that I’ve signed with @brassland for my debut EP. Here’s a first listen.
